Rong Qi glanced at the slightly weakened Ye Nanshen and whispered, âIâll go to the restroom and be right back.â
Ye Nanshen opened his eyes and nodded.
Rong Qi left, and Lu Chengzhou immediately sat down and took out a pill from his pocket. He said, âShen, hold on a little longer; there are too many people here.â
Ye Nanshen took the pill and drank it with the wine, leaning back on the sofa with his eyes closed as if he were asleep.
Lu Chengzhou did not disturb Ye Nanshen further and continued to chat with Little Qiqi via messages, [Little Qiqi, Ye Nanshenâs medicine is almost gone; do you still want to make some more? I feel like this medicine is no longer effective for him. You canât imagine; even though he had an episode today, he still came outâ¦]
On the other hand, as Rong Qi was on her way to the restroom, she received messages from Lu Chengzhou. Rong Qi replied to him while walking.
Unexpectedly, when Rong Qi was typing the message, a pair of high heels suddenly appeared in her line of sight.
Rong Qiâs eyes flickered slightly, and she put away her phone and raised her head.
Gu Yuyan stood right in front of Rong Qi, and they locked eyes.
Gu Yuyanâs makeup was still exquisite, and she smiled gently at the corners of her mouth. She said, âMiss Rong, I want to talk to you.â
Rong Qi raised an eyebrow and asked, âWhat is it, Miss Gu?â
Gu Yuyan stared deeply at Rong Qi and asked, âAre you with Ye Nanshen for money and fame? Do you intentionally target me today because you feel threatened by me?â
Rong Qi chuckled, not showing the anger that Gu Yuyan expected.
Indeed, before today, Rong Qi did think so. She thought Gu Yuyan was the one Ye Nanshen was thinking about, even when he was ill. But now, Rong Qi knew.
Rong Qiâs ambiguous response made Gu Yuyan even more certain. Gu Yuyan said, âMiss Rong is clever and resourceful, something that 1 canât match. But I want to tell you that the friendship between Ye Nanshen and me, which weâve had since childhood, wonât change so easily. The way he is treating me now is just a way to anger me. In the end, he and 1 will be together. Miss Rong, you pretended to be retard before, which piqued Ye Nanshenâs interest and made him think you were different from other women. However, what heâs doing now is merely a momentary novelty, do you understand? He wonât like you.â âSo what? Miss Gu, what do you want to say?â Rong Qi asked as her smile widened, showing no signs of the anger Gu Yuyan expected.
Gu Yuyan squinted her eyes. She lifted her chin with pride and said, â1â11 give you thirty million and you leave Ye Nanshen.â
Before Rong Qi could reply, Gu Yuyan continued, âI know that your family is facing a financial crisis right now, and you must be anxious, right?â
Rong Qiâs movement paused. She was not anxious at all.
Rong Qi glanced at Gu Yuyan with a secretive look and thought, âPerhaps Gu Yuyan should have investigated my relationship with the Rong family while she was at it? But maybe she did investigate, and 1 just donât care.â
However, Gu Yuyan interpreted Rong Qiâs action as her soft spot.
Gu Yuyan spoke with more confidence, âFifty million, plus 1 will help you deal with your familyâs investment issues. How about that? You must know that without your familyâs support, you wonât be able to maintain your position as Ye Nanshenâs wife. If he abandons you in the future, you will have nowhere to go. Miss Rong, you are a smart person and smart people know what choices they should make, right?â
Rong Qiâs smile widened even more, âMiss Gu, youâre joking, right? Who doesnât know that Ye Nanshen is the richest man in the entire Leucia? Your fifty million is just a drop in the ocean compared to him. Even a pig in the next village would know which one to choose when compared to him.â
Rong Qi paused for a moment before continuing, â1 married Ye Nanshen, and he gave me a dowry of one billion. If 1 want money, wouldnât it be better to just ask him directly? In the entire capital, who could be wealthier than him? Besides, with his wealth, I can act my whole life. His conditions are much more tempting than the ones you offer, Miss Gu.â
As Rong Qi finished speaking, Gu Yuyanâs voice rang out with a hint of anger, âYouâre just with Nanshen for money and fame!â
